Preview Radio Free Russia

Radio Free Russia was run by NTS (Popular Labor Union) --Russian oppositional anti-Communist organization actively supported by CIA. Located in Frankfurt, NTS advocated the violent overthrow of the Soviet regime. CIA's funding of NTS stopped only in 1989. Of course, in the 70s CIA's connection was still denied. NTS is famous for publishing books written by the " unpublishable " Soviet authors and smuggled out of the USSR. Not much is known about NTS's highly secretive station Radio Free Russia. It began broadcasting sometime in the 50s and was on the air through the mid 70s. It was a clandestine operation run out of West Germany. At some point, it had relays from South Korea and perhaps Taiwan. German " Free Russia " used txs of 10 kW. It was jammed so heavily that I doubt it had any audience in the Soviet Union. RFR was also known for using the Russian military frequencies to reach the Soviet forces in East Germany. The station was shut down by West-German authorities when their " real politik " began (diplomatic recognition of GDR, better relation with USSR, etc.). These days, one can hear a station with a similar name broadcasting on several AM-frequencies out of Moscow. Ironically, contemporary " Free Russia " is run by the Communists. It is an officially registered operation opposing the Kremlin authorities. I guess people behind this " Free Russia "; would not mind some kind of violent revolution, either.
